Persona 5 on Switch confirmed.

fake edit: not really. not part of the stream. just my high hope.

real edit: damn it, top of page...

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Spoiler

Good news for Horizon at least so no biggie.

Isn't more good news for Persona in that scenario

 

[Lord of Ostia]

This kinda sucks...but February was so packed anyway. I guess I can focus on Horizon/For Honor instead this way, and April seems pretty open at the moment. The wait is killing me though, I need this game.

 

[Shin]

Happy about dual audio! Was just asking about the very same thing earlier today.

 

[the_sun_king]

Did they not get the script until like Japan's release?

Personally, it felt like they didn't get anything until just around E3.

 

[Lunar15]

But there's dual audio!

 

[Gentleman Jack]

LOL the rollercoaster in this thread.

Grats, dual audio lovers, your prayers are answered.

But there's a price...

 

[Metroidvania]

I don't freaking care about dual audio I was going to play the game in English anyway.

How could you delay a localization by two whole months ! What were they thinking when they announced the february release date ?

Honestly, same. I appreciate having the JPN VO as an option, but this is pretty damn terrible.

So what happened to working closely to get a close to simultaneous launch. Atlus is starting to piss me off with how the localization of this game has gone on.

Atlus get your shit together. One or two delays is fine. But this is just embarrassing. I don't like calling for people's jobs but whoever is spearheading this localisation should be looked at.

Something must have seriously gone pear-shaped during some part of the process.

 

[Servbot24]

I had way too many games to play anyways.

But even so.

DAMNIIIIIIIIIIIIIT X(

 

[Sandfox]

But there's dual audio!

This is how I feel.

 

[AAMARMO]

No Just No.

 

[Paznos]

This console generation has had the most delays hasn't it?

 

[kunonabi]

Atlus is so hit or miss with English voice acting that I'll take the delay if we're getting dual audio with it.

 

[JetSetRadio]

Dual audio? WORTH IT

 

[The Elite]

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Meh.

I am sad.

 

[Ray Down]

But there's dual audio!

 

[sasliquid]

But that's the end of the financial year so I won't be able to get that sort of dates off

 

[hohoXD123]

Godddammit no! Been waiting so long for this, it has been delay after delay even after the JP release. Dual audio is nice but not worth a 2 month delay, don't get how they're still taking this long with localisations in 2016/2017.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

How does a game that just needs to be translated and dubbed still fall victim to a delay. Atlus why

Cause it's more complicated than "just translated and dubbed". There are probably other factors involved like a super busy Q1 2017

 

[Mookie1515]

Wonder if they'll fix the font then. That'd make people happy.

 

[Kaako]

This isn't getting a Pro patch I bet.

I'd like to see Atlus try. Pro patch or bust at this point going forward.

 

[yoonshik]

Dual audio?

 

[Bullza2o]

Dual Audio to make up for the delay is ok, but looks like Nintendo will take many of our hearts instead before it launches.

 

[RomanticHeroX]

Alright PlayAsia, let's do this.

 

[Acquiescence]

But there's dual audio!

I'll happily take a delay if it means I can get the most authentic experience possible.

 

[LifeBrandRobot]

Good for me. Should be done all of my February games by then.

 

[Steel]

Whelp. Here I was hoping for it to be some post-election comfort food.

 

[Darkness Unleashed]

If this is the price to pay for dual audio. So be it.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

I couldn't give less of a fuck about Japanese Audio so that does nothing to lessen the sting, but the game and the constant delays are oh so slowly approaching "I don't give a shit anymore" territory with me. The fact that it's releasing so close to ME4 means I might even end up skipping this one at launch.

 

[Vandole]

Just in time to launch with the Switch.

 

[Catvoca]

Fuck I don't even care about dual audio! Cool for others I suppose

 

[BlackBuzzard]

Lets be honest i think it also had to do with how packed February became.

Nier,Nioh and Persona 5 were all kinda fighting for the same demographic, something had to give.

 

[AyaisMUsikWhore]

Good. I feared this game was coming out too close to several other hitters so im glad it gets a chance to breathe....in addition to me already knowing it was going to get delayed lol

 

[shadow2810]

Delay for dual audio? I will take it.

 

[Algebrah]

 

[Vinc]

PS4 exclusive, no PS3 version in NA?

 

[Lunar15]

I'll happily take a delay if it means I can get the most authentic experience possible.

I kinda just want the fucking game.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Japanese Audio DLC on release is so much more important than a February Release.

Thank God.

 

[Notorious_Roy]

Since it lands on my birthday now, it somehow makes it ok for me lol. Will let me mess around with the Switch for a few weeks then. Already know P5 will take a month of my time.

What if the delay is Switch related?

 

[TheFlow]

If this is the price to pay for dual audio. So be it.

2 month delay for dual audio...what a bad price.

 

[firehawk12]

DUAL AUDIO FUCK YES

Japanese Audio DLC is so much more important than a February Release.

Thank God.

What if every character was voiced by Mark Meer????

 

[mjc]

Fuck dual audio, if those nerds wanted that they can import the Japanese version.

Atlus pissing me off.

 

[crazyivan19]

Well.... damn.
I couldn't possibly care less about dual audio, so this delay hurts. Kudos to everyone that is enjoying the news, but this is the first delay I'm actively really, really bummed about.

I guess the only silver lining is that it gives me more time to play Horizon (assuming it doesn't also get delayed).

 

[Ray Down]

I'd like to see Atlus try. Pro patch or bust at this point going forward.

They would have confirmed one for the Japanese launch of the pro. I don't see the main team patching the game for other regions 7 months later.

 

[bloodyroarxx]

I couldn't give less of a fuck about Japanese Audio so that does nothing to lessen The sting, but the game and the constant delays are oh so slowly approaching "I don't give a shit anymore" territory with me. The fact that it's releasing so close to ME4 means I might even end up skipping this one at launch.

Im kind of at the dont give a shit point too.

Like the blue balls with this game is absolutley fucking absurd

 

[TheExodu5]

What the hell am I going to do on Valentine's day now? Take my girlfriend out for dinner? Ugh, Valentine's day ruined.

 

[Quintin DM]

NOOOOO!! Well Duel Audio is dope at least.

 

[Confused Cheeseburger]

Excellent now i can get horizon and persona

 

[PK Gaming]

But there's dual audio!

"It's fine, I've got tooooooonns of games to play through in the meantime"

But what if you're poor, though

 

[purseowner]

I'm so happy we finally get Dual Audio.
